"The Last Stand": I don't want to be a saint

At the end, there is a very good paragraph, he said, you just want to make him a saint, and he doesn't want to be a saint, he just wants a quiet and peaceful life.
I think we all made the mistake of treating people who have been repeatedly exaggerated in history as saints, and ignoring the joys, sorrows and joys that they should have as ordinary people... Not that they are not enough for us to awe, I think more It is better to think of a normal heart.
Like Confucius, Mencius, Tolstoy...etc, they are great and small, they also die but they have souls, they haven't lost their beliefs...just they don't have the opportunity to argue about misunderstood
things It's obvious, its black and white characters are too rigid, and it is easy for human beings to misunderstand...
ps: I think that a person as smart as Tolstoy can't be wrong, just live and live...

    Helen Mirren undoubtedly gave a peak performance! The story, the soundtrack, and the framing of the film are as refined and flawless as its overall effect.

    To interpret Tolstoy in terms of American values ​​is indeed not a good match, but Christopher Plummer and Helen Mirren, the two old dramas, made the Tolstoy couple out of luck. The lines of Paul Giamatti and James McAvoy are too clear-cut and lack depth. Generally speaking, it is the little freshness of Russian writers’ literary love in the eyes of Americans.
